The final exhibit we come to in the Women at War. During the First World War women worked in the jobs that the men had left behind when they enlisted. Along with this involvement, women could also enlist themselves into the roll of Nursing Sister, with the Royal Canadian Army Medical Corps (R.C.A.M.C.).
65,000,000 men from 30 nations took part in World War One. At least 10,000,000 were killed and 29,000,000 were wounded, captured or missing. A total of 619,636 Canadians men and women took part in World War One. 66,655 were killed and another 172,950 were wounded.
More than one of every 10 Canadians that fought in the war did not return.
